sexual content, incest, brief language, and violence. fade has a very original and compelling story. I wouldnt recommend a child younger than high school to read it. for th issues i listed and because even for me the quick setting changes were somewhat confusing. It certainly is interesting and keeps you guessing. I researched further on it because i was unsure on whether it was based on a true story. The characters and their actions just seem so real. Even with the censored details, it is a good book to read.

What Parents Need to Know
About Fade
Parents need to know that in this story focuses on an otherwise good boy who succumbs to temptation, spies on people, and even commits murder but reforms. It also includes a vivid portrayal of Depression-era working conditions. Too long for reluctant readers, this is nonetheless a fascinating horror and morality story, with sensitive character portrayals punctuated by increasingly intense action.

Sick Trash!
Lots of profanity, sex, incest and violence. Teen boy lusts after his aunt, long descriptions of him having orgasms, etc. He watches a teen brother and sister have sex. Lots of savage killings. There appear to be no negative consequences for his actions.
